Volunteer firefighter/paramedic, disabled vet, crippled old man who doesn’t respect his body’s limitations.
Yet another insufferable twit who insists on being a leftist rather than a liberal.
PDX, queer, burner.

There are people who go through life without watching Hazbin Hotel, and that just makes me sad.
Y'all - season two is going great.

I don’t have allergies or sensitive skin or ethical problems with pointless dyes and perfumes. I just think they are dumb and I don’t want to buy them.
It is nice to see that the Fred Meyer nearest my house now has more than 50% of the laundry aisle full of normal no-scent/dye potions and powders.

On days when lots of legal news breaks, I would like to remind everybody that @kenwhite.bsky.social exists and you can read his stuff for free. You don’t even need to threaten anyone with a knife or anything - it’s just there. In print. For all the world to see.

The “vote blue no matter who” people seriously can’t wrap their head around this: yes we all know the republicans are worse, but human nature will not allow people to continue supporting the dems after a certain amount of abandonment and disappointment.

I am exactly zero percent surprised that Senate dems once again gave up halfway through.
I’m a half-century old and honestly can’t remember a single time in my life they were worth a fuck.
They shouldn’t have tried to pretend to take a stand in the first place. Coulda saved us all a lot of bother.

Really, the dems need to stop saving the GOP.
Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

I got something like poison oak on my arms and legs and y’all - I’m not doing great. I keep waking up due to itching, I showered five times yesterday because the running water provided some relief and I have used lots of topical treatments & gotten a prednisone prescription.
This is maddening.

Blindingly-obvious thing that literally everyone was pointing out this whole time turns out to be exactly what everyone said it was.
The Jewish right discovering in real time that the Trumpist right, and the open bigotries it has unleashed upon the US body politic, is not in fact going to spare Jews, is quite a trip.

Same. I just set out a couple bins of goodies at the end of the walkway and turned off my porch lights.

Firefighter shift - first one in 3-4 months.
I’m super rusty at basic skills. Spending most of the day doing review and catching up.

Could a young marine make a dumb choice? Of course.
Could an eastern European tattoo parlor put a flash totenkopf on a guy without asking “you sure about this, dude?” Yup.
Could a guy be dumb enough to think it’s simply a pirate symbol? Sure.
Could he do that for 18 fucking years? … no, man. No.

The conviction was for real crimes with real victims, and Santos never made amends. And now, never will.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Trump says he has commuted sentence of former US Rep. George Santos in federal fraud case.

Getting out my medic stuff to change over from Ukraine mode to Portland protest mode, and realizing that there is very little difference between the two sets of kit.
Removing atropine, adding rifle plates. Swapping МЕДИК patches for MEDIC patches.
Sigh.
This timeline sucks.

It’s only a matter of time before Americans learn the lessons of Ukraine’s drone war, and we start seeing right-wing terrorists using them to target people and left-wing protestors using them to take out equipment.
